The Horse Knew His Home.

About year ago q young named Fred
Patterson, Of East Fishkill, was arrested
for stealing the horse of Mrs. Neal, in
Connecticut, by man who said he was a
detective from Massachusetts,, and gave his
name as Mcnamara He told wonderful
stories of how he had tracked Patterson,
and Patterson was taken into MaSSachu-
sets as prisoner. Charles Horton, of
East Fishkill, believed Patterson to be in
nocent, and coming to Poughkeepsie gave
his reason for 50 believing. Deputy Sheriff
Downey also came TO the conclusion that
Patterson was innocent. Then, with Others,
he went 10 work to defend the prisoner,
and the result was that he WAS declared
innocent and discharged. Now comes the
sequel. The real thief has been captured,
and has confessed, and Mrs Meals horse
was found a few days ago in the town of
Webster, Mass. His tail had been cut off
and banged, his name had been cut off,
and he was emaciated and utterly broken
down. The parties having the animal
would not give him up, Notwithstanding
he was stolen fully identified him, and q
| replevin suit followed Then came
| novel test for further Identification of
| lhS IOISe. uC Uldl son III w CUSTER
Mass, brought the horse to the town in
Connecticut where Mrs. Neal lives, and
the animal was placed in a livery stable
and fed. Afterward he was taken out and
| hitched to a carriage, and the agreement
was that the horse was TO be allowed to go
whichever way he pleased to see if he
! would go to the place from which he was
stolen 4 year ago last April. If he went
to the barn and into a certain stall, that
was to be the final proof that he WAS Mrs.
Meals horse A large crowd of people col
lected to watch the test. After the har-
ness had been placed on the horse he was
hitched to the carriage, and the reins
hanging on the dashboard, with no one in
the vehicle, the poor, emaciated, home
sick and abused animal went straight to
the barn, the doors of which had been left
| open, and entered stall No. with neigh
and snort, and inside of him he probably
sang Home, Sweet Home" This settled
the question of Identification, and the boy
went home to his father with the story.

HORACE GREELEY CROSSING THE
SIERRAS.

The old stage-driyers of the brave old days
The old stage-driyers with their dash and
trust
These old stage-drivers they have gone their
ways,
But their deeds live on, though their bones
are dust
And many and many a tale is retold
OF these daring old men in the days of gold:
Of honest old Monk and his Tally-Ho.
When he took good Horace in his stage to
The high Sierras with their peaks of snow,
And cross to Nevada, " and come in on time;'
But the, canyon below was SO deep-oh! so
deep
And the summit above was SO steep-ohi so
steepl
Was as steep as the stars on still, clear night,
And sleeper and sleeper the narrow route led.
Till up 10 the peaks of perpetual white;
But the faithful old Monk, with his face 10 the
SHOW,
Sat silent and stern on his Tally Ho;
Sat silent and still. sat faithful and true
To the great, good man in his charge that day;
Sat vowing the man and the mail should go
through
On time though he busted both trace and
Sat silently vowing, in face of the snow,
He'd come in on time with his Tally-Ho.
But the way was so steep and SO slow-oh SO
slow
Twas silver below, aud the bright silver
peaks
Were silver above, in their beauty aud Snow
Where eagles swooped By, with their bright,
shiny beaks;
When, sudden out-popping head snowy
" Mr.. Monk, 1 must lecture in Nevada to-nightr'
With just one thought that the mail must go
through
But weary-so weary-the stage wheels drew
As only the weary old stage Wheels can
When again shot the head it came shrcking
outright:
Just then came the summit And the wide
world below.
It was Hank Monks world But he no word
spake.
He pushed back his hat to a high peak OF snow!
He threw out his foot to the great strong brakel
He threw out his silk He threw out his reins
And the great wheels Teeled as if reeliug snow
skeins
The eagles were lost in their crags up above
The horses flew swift as the swift light of
morn
The mail must go through with its message OF
love,
The miners were waiting his bright bugle
horn.
The man must go through And Monk made a

Once more popped the head, and the piping
voice cried:
" Mr.. Monk! Mr. Monk ~ But no Monk re-

Then it dipped like a ship in the deep jaws OF

Then the good man he gasped. as men gasp.

The Use and Cost of Mahogany

People whose tastes favor mahogany for
inside finish can now indulge them with
| out paying much more money than they
would for finish of the higher-priced ma
! tive hardwoods. To do this, however. the
mahogany must be bought as lumber. II
man unacquainted with the price of ma
hogany bargains with contractor to fin
ish one or dozen rooms, as the case may
be, in what has sometimes been called the
king of woods" he may depend upon it
that the price will be round one, Fur
niture manufacturers take the same adj
vantages of their customers. They seem
to think that because mahogany is not a
common wood, because it is very fashion
able, and in former days was expensive,
consumers will take it for granted that
they must pay good deal OF
money for mahogany furniture. 1t is
enough to make the initiated smile to walk
through furniture house and price articles
made Of the different woods. There may
be table or chair of cherry and mahog-
any standing side by side The same
amount of work has been expended on
each, but for the mahogany article at least
two prices are asked, when the fact is the
wood did not cost 25 per cent more than
did that of the cherry piece. But simply
because it is mahogany a fancy price is
wanted. Furniture-users will undoubtedly
for ali time be obliged to pay these exor-
bitant prices, but there is often no reason
why the man who wishes to finish his
house in mahogany should not buy the
lumber and havehis carpenter work it as he
would cherry, walnut or oak.-Northueste77s

Hindoo Maxims.

The original Hindoo religion recognized
but one God, also the sages of Greece.
The Hindoo Vedas THAT had the same
authority with them that the Bible has
with Catholics and Protestants) was writ
ten 5000 years before Christ. Deity is
thus defined: "He who exists by him
sell, who is in all, because all is in him."
The Gauges flows, it is God the ocean
roars, it is God; the wind blows, it is He {;
the cloud that thunders, the lightning that
flashes, it is He. As from all eternity, all
existed in the spirit Of Brahma, so to-day
all that exists is in his image"
Manou. a Hindoo philosopher wrote
1000 years ago the following maxims, that
are as well worthy of acceptance now as
then:
"Of all things pure, purity in the &C
QUESTION of riches is best. He who pre-
serves purity in the acquisition of riches
is really pure; not he who is purified with
earth and water"
AS the body is purified by water, so is
the soul by truth"
"Sound doctrine and good works purify
the soul"
"The intelligence is purified by knowl-
edge"
"Science is useless to a man without
judgment, as mirror to blind man.
1.-The man who only appreciates the
means, according as they conduce to his
success, soon loses his perception of the just
and of sound doctrine"
Christina Ia Hindoo) taught this about
the soul THAT benighted being like my
self, cropping for light, can better compre-
bend than much of the teachings of the
ologians of the past fifty years.:
"The soul is the principle of life, which
Sovereign wisdom employed to animate
bodies; matter is inert and perishable; the
soul is immortal"
The Nedas has also good word to say
for women, that will be a grain of comfort
to the female sex, even if it neglects to say
that all swomen, as well as all men,
in these United States should have the
ballot.
We cherish private opinion that
neither should have it till by rigid ex-
animation they have proved they can ex-
ercise the right of suffrage intelligently.
Thus saith the Vedas: He who de-
spises women despises his mother. There
is no crime more odious than to prosecute
women, and take the advantage of their
weakness to despoil them of their patri-
mony. When women are honored, the
divinities are content, but where they are
not honored, all undertakings fail"
The Hindoo philosopher, Narada, re-
puted to have lived before the deluge, rea-
sons thus: "Never resort to the argument,
| do not know this, therefore it is false
We must study to know, know to compre-
bend, and comprehend to Judge"
